Straightforward, two rounds. The first round focused on research experience, interest in the company, and teamwork. The second round was a more intensive super day with a data oriented case question.

Pretty straightforward.
The interview can last ~4 hours with my rounds back to back, making it slightly exhausting. They test you on your data and people skills. There is some repetition in the types of questions being from one round to another, which shows the coordination between the interviewers can be better.
